Ryan Reynolds returns to the character, the so-called Merc with a mouth for another adventure, which also stars Zazie Beetz (Atlanta) as Domino, a luck-manipulating mutant, and Josh Brolin as Cable, the villain of the piece. There’s also Leslie Uggams as Blind Al, Morena Baccarin as Vanessa, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Stefan Kapicic as the voice of Colossus, all of whom were seen in the last movie, released in February 2016. Japanese actress Shioli Kutsuna and Julian Dennison (Hunt for the Wilderpeople) are also amongst the superb cast.

David Leitch (John Wick, upcoming Atomic Blonde) is directing this time around from a screenplay by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who wrote the first movie. Reynolds produces alongside Simon Kinberg and Lauren Shuler Donner while 20th Century Fox are backing it with the cash and distributing worldwide.
The first Deadpool was a monster hit, taking in a whopping $780 million worldwide theatrically. That haul makes it the biggest R-rated movie of all time and indeed one of the most profitable as the film only cost around $60 million plus marketing costs to make.
